(FOX)
The Gifted TV show won’t be back for a third season on FOX. The network cancelled the X-Men universe drama two months after its season two finale. Reportedly, there exists some chance that the Marvel series could return someday to a Disney-owned outlet, but nothing is currently in the works.
A FOX superhero drama, The Gifted stars Stephen Moyer, Amy Acker, Sean Teale, Jamie Chung, Coby Bell, Emma Dumont, Blair Redford, Natalie Alyn Lind, Percy Hynes White, Skyler Samuels, and Grace Byers. Based on a Marvel Comics alternate timeline, the show follows two ordinary parents with mutant children who go on the run from the government and join an underground community of mutants.
The Gifted: A Look at the Ratings
The second season of The Gifted on FOX averaged a 0.59 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 1.95 million viewers. Compared to season one, that’s down by 41% and 41%, respectively. In terms of its demo numbers, it ranked 15th out of the 16 scripted FOX TV shows we’re tracking. When sorted by total audience it dropped to last place, just behind the comedy, Rel, which was also cancelled today.
The family adventure series, set in Marvel’s X-Men universe, comes from 20th Century Fox TV, which now is part of Disney.
I hear that there have been no real conversations but there is a chance for The Gifted to find a new home within the Disney family. The show is produced by Marvel Television, which currently has series on Disney-owned Freeform and Disney-controlled Hulu. (Disney+’s Marvel series come from the company’s movie division.)
What do you think? Are you disappointed that The Gifted TV series was cancelled? Would you have watched season three on FOX? Would you follow it to a new network?
Very disappointed. I think Fox made the decision too soon to cancel.
Very disappointed, it was wonderful and really going places, Pox is too quick In finalising shows
Disappointed
I am very disappointed the Gifted was not renewed for another season.
Very disappointed to hear this. Networks seem to pull good shows and leave the not so good ones. Hope another network picks them up
I’m very disappointed at Fox for dropping the gifted. That show was very interesting and fun to watch I would watch it on any channel if it goes to Disney I will be looking forward to see season three.
Very disappointed that The Gifted hasn’t been renewed! I would definitely have watched!
WOULD WATCH ANOTHER SEASON. WISH IT HAD BEEN RENEWED.
Disappointed the Gifited was cancelled. I would definitely watch it if it’s picked up by another service
I am so upset. I’m sick of getting excited about series and looking forward to them only to have stupid networks like FOX cancel them. I have watched season 1 and 2 over and over on Hulu but I guess they aren’t going to run the next season either. Maybe the writers could put season 3 in a book. That would be better than being left with nothing.
Well that’s disappointing! I was looking forward to a season 3. I hope another network picks them up.
Oh noooo!!! Gifted is awesome! :((((( Why always the good shows gets cancelled and the bad ones last forever? :/ sight!
I hope they don’t cancel “The Gifted” because there’s more interesting information that need to pass on as well. Like when will they have some details that they finally find “The X-men team?”
Disney please bring it back we love it
I liked the series “The Gifted” it should have never been canceled, hope that the new Disney Channel picks up the show since it is a Marvel show.
